Forgive and forget I say. Jolly is only a loser regarding his recent behaviour. Still a premiership hero who I hope goes to the 10 year premiership reunion in 2020. |

ON the Block they played the Swans song last week for Darren rather than the Collingwood song, that surely is indicative of where he stands. |

Couldn't be more disappointed with Jolly.
Without him I dont think we win the flag in 2010.
He wasn't wrong in his comments on Fraser about his best being past him and that he needed to accept that Jolly would be first choice.
The way he went about saying that in the paper was selfish and disrespectful.
Its ironic that he couldn't recognise that he himself had reached the same position last year. His body couldn't hold up and when he could get on the track his form in the twos was no where near good enough to displace Grundy.
There is no way he'd have played ahed of Witts this year especially with Grundy and even White playing ruck.
I understand the emotion at the time of his delisting as it did come much quicker than he would have thought, injury does that however he has had time to settle on it all and the fact that no other club was interested should have told him something.
He could have been welcomed and embraced by the club as the premiership hero he was instead of the selfish child he has become.
He will regret not having a club to call home especially a family as big as collingwood. _________________ "Even when Im old and gray, I wont be able to play but Ill still love the game"

He lost me with the Fraser article. Fraser was a true Pie, gave us everything he had and in the end missed a Premiership by 1 year. I wouldn't be surprised if Josh wakes up sore every day and still looks with love at his days at Collingwood.
Jolly did his mercenary job for us, thanks, now please kindly **** off. |

Didn't the other 17 teams also agree he wasn't up to scratch? They all choose not to draft his as well. _________________ How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say? |

Good point^.Jolly was finished a long time ago,his body just wasn't up to it anymore.The fact that no other team picked him up suggests that Buckley made the right call.He was well and truly finished by then. |

It was clear to everyone except Jolly and his manager that he was finished at the end of 2013.
Jolly made a comment about not 'pissing in people's pockets' during that SEN interview, well that's all the club would have been doing if they sugarcoated his exit interview.
Great player but a massive tool. |

Yeh, I noted that, not that I watch that boorish shit show much, but the old ball and chain hes hitched too rules him with an iron hand, shes the boss allright, no wonder Jolls is so pissed off with the world. _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

If you know any Sydney fans, ask them what they think of Jolly and his Mrs. |

The concern with Jolly wasnt whether he was finished ... general consensus is he was. The concern is with how we terminated him.
Its the manner he was sacked that has pissed him off.

''I'm not stupid. I accept that everyone's footy career comes to an end one day, but if 'Bucks' had just sat me down that day and said, 'Look, 'Jolls', you've given us fantastic service, but unfortunately the direction we want to go in, you don't fit into those plans' ... if he'd just treated me with a bit more respect, it would have been a lot easier to stomach.'' |

I think he was entitled to a face-to-face which he didnt get. Its the manner he was sacked that has pissed him off. |
The Pies have always been a bit like that, just ask Peter Daicos ! In the early 40s, so I have read, one of the Colliers turned up for pre season training, had been told nothing. and he went to look at the final team sheet. Unbeknown to him, his name wasn't on it. He went to Mchales office, and asked old Jock how come his name wasn't on the list, "OH said ol Jock, sorry, but you've been delisted, thanks anyway for your service. Bye !" And with that, Harry Collier turned and left Vic Park, no longer required after 4 six flags and a Brownlow medal. _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.
